I didn’t intend to compare Churchill to Jobs or the others in terms of achievements, it was more a comment on criticism I have seen of him in the last year which nullifies all of his accomplishments on the basis of racist comments, which, however unpalatable they may seem today, appear to have ben unfortunately quite in keeping with many of his peers of the day. (I know there were other actions of his that have been criticised as well but let’s just keep it to one example at the moment). So, maybe bad comparison but my intent was illustrative only

Ah, I have completely missed this particular controversy. I was been wondering if this was really a debate about cancel culture. In that sense, I hear you. I'm vehemently anti-cancel culture, and I don't particularly care if some prominent historical figure had the "wrong" views.
